Can PC withstand temperatures as low as minus 40 degrees centigrade

Can PC be used at a low temperature of minus 40°C? A few days ago at the Asia Pacific Rubber and Plastics Exhibition, a company asked the editor of Qingdao Meifeng whether there is a transparent PC material that can be used in a low temperature environment of around -30~-40°C without cracking.

The customer produces outdoor electric meters. The housing can be made of PC/ABS alloy, but the see-through window needs to have good transparency and PC material needs to be used. In extremely cold regions such as Northeast China and Russia, the outdoor ambient temperature is extremely low, and the electric watch case is required to be used normally in an environment of -40°C without cracking. General PC materials cannot meet this requirement. The sales manager of Qingdao Prime Union recommended SABIC LEXAN series of silicon-containing PC materials to customers.

Silicon-containing PC, also known as silicon-copolymerized PC, is a silicon-containing PC block-copolymerized with polydimethylsiloxane. By introducing organosilicon groups, the flexibility, hydrolysis resistance, corrosion resistance, and oxidation resistance of copolymerized silicon PC Properties such as sex and yellowing resistance are greatly improved. At present, it has been widely used in various products such as 5G communication, electrical equipment, artificial intelligence, medical equipment, VR equipment, etc., and due to its excellent performance and transparency, the market prospect is broad.

SABIC low temperature resistant silicon copolymer PC series, common models include EXL1414, EXL1192C, EXL1132, EXL1330, 1173X, BX9394 and other models.
